Everytime I try opening the spam sub-forum ( http://www.omnimaga.org/index.php?board=20.0 ) on page #1, it takes a very long while to load and page execution time (at the bottom of the page) consistently shows 14 seconds load (it never goes under 14.000 or 14.999 sec). All other sub-forums, along with every other page of the spam section, load fine (unless I load spam then try loading another section before spam finished loading)

Could you look into this? Because this is strange that only one forum section, let alone one single page of it, would take this long to load, while every other section/page loads fine (they average around 0.500 seconds). I'M thinking something on that page got hacked, such as a topic title or something else, or there's a glitch. It's not because it has too many topics/posts, because the calc projects and news sections, even if we exclude sub-forums there, have way more posts, yet they load perfectly fine.

Could it also be caused by the presence of minus topic IDs in the page? I noticed that other sections loads slower when viewing entire pages of minus topics (around 1.9 sec execution time), while positive topic pages load normally. However I'm thinking it's not that, because the first page of spam takes far more than 1.9 seconds and it only has a few minus world topics.

In case you are wondering where I went, I am still active in the TI community, but I left Omni back in 2015 for variousreasons. I might come back one day, depending of certain circumstances, but my new online home (despite me being Omnimaga founder in 2001) is now CodeWalrus ( https://codewalr.us ). Sorry for the inconveniences.

No reason why this should be the case considering it uses the same PHP code as every other board page, unless somebody managed to hack in some script in the topic titles/descriptions or ezportal that causes intense server resource usage just on that page.

Late last night, Quebec was invaded by a group calling themselves, "Omnimaga". Not much is known about these mysterious people except that they all carried calculators of some kind and they all seemed to converge on one house in particular. Experts estimate that the combined power of their fabled calculators is greater than all the worlds super computers put together. The group seems to be holding out in the home of a certain DJ_O, who the Omnimagians claim to be their founder. Such power has put the world at a standstill with everyone waiting to see what the Omnimagians will do...

Wait... This just in, the Omnimagians have sent the UN a list of demands that must be met or else the world will be "submitted to the wrath of Netham45's Lobster Army". Such demands include >9001 crates of peanuts, sacrificial blue lobsters, and a wide assortment of cherry flavored items. With such computing power stored in the hands of such people, we can only hope these demands are met.

In the wake of these events, we can only ask, Why? Why do these people make these demands, what caused them to gather, and what are their future plans...

Yeah. I tried many pages elsewhere on the forums and the highest it would go to is 1.9 sec, in the minus world. Even in projects, where minus topics were necroposted in, creating a mix of positive and negative thread IDs in the list like the first page of spam, I did not even get close to that.

Yeah I noticed the lag recently, but it was rather rare. Now I noticed the new pattern.

Deep, could you try putting HTML in topic descriptions? (Edit my first post without quick modify to test) I wonder if it works...
